winemaker's notes:

Our 2008 is a perfect expression of Monterey Chardonnay with bright aromas of apple, candied lemon and honeysuckle accented by notes of fresh butter and caramel. The palate is rich and very smooth, exhibiting lush flavors of ripe tropical fruits finishing with beautiful notes of vanilla, crème brûlée and spice.

alcohol by volume: 14.0%

critical acclaim:

"Bold, rich and layered, with a medley of smoky fig, toasty oak, hazelnut and roasted marshmallow flavors that are pure, focused, intense and concentrated, ending with a long, persistent finish. Drink now through 2015. 22,380 cases made. Best Buy"

This is an excellent chardonnay. It's light, yet has some body to it. Flavorful, but with a good clean finish. I recommend purchasing more than one bottle, you'll want an additional one when you finish the first.
